Sometimes our veterans need more than just a “thank you for your service”. That’s why we created the Salute to Servicewomen Golf Classic. This event not only honors all women veterans but also gives more than just a “thank you” to those who find themselves homeless after leaving military service.

In 2018, this event raised enough money to furnish a new, female veteran transitional home in Maplewood, including move-in baskets to help these veterans get started.Monies raised in 2019 will support female veterans as they move from transitional housing to a permanent home.

IT’S A NEW BEGINNING

Unlike traditional temporary shelters, transitional housing creates a stable environment—a place the veteran can work on her future without worrying about where she will sleep each night. Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans (a 501(c)3 organization) provides the home and a case manager to support the veteran’s efforts toward self-sufficiency.

Your participation as a sponsor or golfer is essential in making these resources available for helping our heroes.
